Businesses That Invest in an ActionCOACH Enjoy Great Returns

More Proof that Business Coaching Works for Businesses of Any Size

LAS VEGAS, April 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — For nearly 20 years, ActionCOACH Business Coaches have been teaching businesses how to be profitable and business owners how to find more time in their lives. There have been many studies showing that the coaching process works and the most recent offers powerful evidence of the impact of business coaching.

A recent study has shown that businesses that work with an ActionCOACH Business Coach had grown their revenues, despite the recession, by more than $12 million in South Florida. Those same businesses had also grown their profits by more than $4.3 million, for average increases of 79 percent for revenues and 106 percent for profits. All in all, those businesses saw a return on investment of $7.5 for every dollar they spent.

ActionCOACH CEO Jodie Shaw was happy with the results of the study, but hardly surprised.

“We know that business coaching works, and more importantly, our clients know that it works. They see it in their ledgers and in the quality of their lives,” Shaw said. “But the fact that businesses have grown so rapidly with coaching is just more proof that, no matter what the economy is like, working with an ActionCOACH Business Coach delivers outstanding return on investment.”

ActionCOACH is the world’s leader in business and executive coaching. ActionCOACH Founder, Chairman and President Brad Sugars started the company in 1993 and began franchising in 1997. Since then, the company has led an industry that is recognized as the second fastest growing business category behind Information Technology.

“Our systems, and our coaches, are the best in the world so we expect to get outstanding results from people that are committed to following our methodology and willing to be accountable. This study shows how much can be accomplished when people are committed and how much we, both individually, and as a franchise, can accomplish,” Shaw said.

ActionCOACH offers business owners a proven and guaranteed system of business building that focuses first on growth in cashflow and profits, as well as systemized ways to retain customers and generate qualified new leads for any business in any business category.

ActionCOACH is the world’s number one business coaching and executive coaching firm, with more than 1,000 offices in 34 countries. To learn more, go to actioncoach.com.

Success and achievement for phenomenal growth for Lane Jones, working with ActionCOACH Business Coach Jeff Smith.

The ActionCOACH FOCUS Award was introduced in 2009 and is presented only to one-on-one coaching clients in the ActionCOACH Community who accomplish tremendous results in their business in a calendar quarter.

Lane Jones started young working for himself cutting grass, raking leaves and as a teenager distributing the local newspaper. Jones always knew he would be in business for himself one day.

“My business goal is to have a profitable business operation that works without me,” said Jones.

Highland Mountain distributes Highland Mountain Spring Water to both business and residential customers throughout Northeast Georgia, is the exclusive distributor of Mountain Valley Spring Water in Glass Bottles for North Georgia, and provides bottle-less water filtration coolers. Highland Mountain also is a full service coffee break service that features unique blends of coffees and condiments for the office environment. They employ twelve people in the Northeast Georgia Area.

A 100% satisfaction guarantee with service and products sets Highland Mountain Beverage Service above competitors.

Jones feels the biggest problem facing the clients his company serves is the present economy forcing budget cuts and unemployment. Jones provided his solution, “Get an ActionCOACH if your business is not doing as well as it could. I believe that an ActionCOACH can improve any business if an owner is willing to work on the business.”

Highland Mountain moved from a loss in Quarter 1 2010 without coaching to a $42,000 profit in Quarter 3 2010 including the cost of coaching. Jones explained, “Coaching turned around over a year of consistent losses when I was not even paying myself into my first profitable quarter since Q1, 2009 and I am paying myself a salary again!

ActionCOACH Jeff Smith of ActionCOACH Atlanta (http:www.actioncoachatlanta.com) is pleased with Lane’s accomplishments and success and believes Highland Mountain Beverage Service will continue to position itself above competitors.

The Action FOCUS Award was presented at ActionCOACH GrowthCLUB at The Mansour Center in Marietta on December 17th, 2010.

Minuteman Press of Marietta Wins an ActionCOACH GA Business Award

Success and achievement for phenomenal growth for Henry L. Jackson III in a down economy, working with an ActionCOACH Business Coach

The ActionCOACH FOCUS Award was introduced in 2009 and is presented to one-on-one coaching clients in the ActionCOACH Community who accomplish tremendous results in their business in a calendar quarter.
“Coming from Corporate America, I had the necessary skills to operate my own company. I am proud of my accomplishments. Then last March, I decided to hire ActionCOACH Jeff Smith. Coach Jeff guided and challenged me to address the major issues, in a well-thought-out approach to grow my business. I learned that the ‘right’ coach added unmatched value in my business and helped me be a stronger leader.

My business goal is to build a self-functioning profitable company that provides a rewarding experience for my team while producing high quality products and services that leaves a lasting positive impression. It is also about adding value to our clients. At Minuteman Press Marietta, we are the printer of choice when what the customer wants has to be done right the first time. While most print shops are simply concerned about putting ink on paper, we are conscious about adding value to our clients. We believe that we can provide our clients with the most professional and clear way possible to communicate their product and services. ” Henry L. Jackson III said.

“Henry knew that working fifteen hours a day in the business and investing into marketing without testing and measuring, was not helping him or his business. Yet, like any other business owner, he had concerns about working with a coach. I was convinced that Henry could accomplish a lot through coaching because of his focus and tenacity. Today, he works thirty hours per week, sales in the business have increased and the team achieved the highest sales volume in twenty years in August 2009. I am very proud of Henry ‘s achievements and he absolutely deserved the recognition,” said ActionCOACH Jeff Smith. http://www.actioncoach.com/jeffsmith
